Yes, but only if you don't know them or are discovering them as a figure (e.g., `I came across a new YouTuber`). If it's a friend, use `ran into`.
It is neutral. It's perfectly fine in a business report or a casual text message.
`Encounter` is more formal and often implies a problem or a challenge. `Come across` is more about the surprise of finding something.
Only when you are describing a personality trait or a role (e.g., `He comes across as a leader`). You don't need it for objects.
No. That would mean you physically moved to the store. `Come across` as a phrasal verb doesn't use 'to' in that way.
It is `came across`. The verb 'come' is irregular (come, came, come).
No. You cannot say `The book was come across by me`. It is always active.
The subject must be the idea. `His meaning didn't come across.` This means people didn't understand him.
